If NATO doesn't have the stomach for a fight in such a scenario that makes bribing Zelensky to sacrifice his population even more contemptible, not less.
A proxy war through Ukraine is equivalent fighting with both hands tied behind your back since the skilled personnel are long gone and the equipment is substandard.
And lost in all of this is where would Ukraine be in a position to withdraw their consent from being a part of this proxy war if there's no mechanism to challenge Zelensky.
